Deliciously Healthy Kale Fruit Smoothie Recipe

4:04 PM

New Year means new recipes, and there's no better way to get motivated for a healthier lifestyle than with a delicious smoothie chock full of nutritious and delicious ingredients. We took a test drive of this Kale Fruit Smoothie, featured in the latest Walmart ad and also featured on their website. It was surprisingly sweet, indulgent, and full of good stuff!

Ingredients:

1 banana

1 apple, core removed and cut into chunks

1 cup soy milk

1 pkg (about 5 ounces) blueberry Greek yogurt

1 cup of kale (bagged kale is just $2.78 everyday at Walmart!)

4 to 5 strawberries

1 cup fresh blueberries

2 drops vanilla extract

Mix all ingredients until smooth. I used my Ninja blender to make this.

Note: This is a sweet smoothie, that I enjoyed even without the vanilla extract. You'll also find that none of the ingredients are frozen, so -- if you enjoy a more "icy" experience, you can choose to freeze the blueberries and yogurt before mixing. Even though the picture on the Walmart website shows this to be green, mine came out very purple from all the berries, so you can totally trick your kids into drinking kale without the smoothie tipping them off!
